[86CRESSIDA86]

Have you searched in the junkyards? They are common to find on 198X-1985 model Supras as well.

They can go for a good $50-100 USD if in good condition. See if anyone with an old school Celica of an old school Supra want to trade wheels with your Cressida. I highly doubt it though, but hey, it's worth a try.

They are hard to find where I live. There is a huge demand for them.. especially for AE86 (1985-1986) Corolla owner's.

Good luck Cres,
Kevin

i havent had the time too look at junkyards but im hopin to this weekend. i dont care what condition there in as long as they dont have big dents or are bent. im goin to get them polished and painted to look like these. my brother asked around and said i can get four for 150. a whole set. of course that isnt in good condition but like i said im gettin them refinished thanx later

if you couldnt tell the first one is before and the second one is after. Heh. i think you could tell though. i want to keep my old rims and put some crappy tires on them so i can just mess around in them. im now lookin at these rims. im thinkin either 14" or 15" with a nice fat lip. the only problem is there workmeisters so there expensive. but i have hookups in japan and can get some good used ones cheaper. there workmeister VS-XXK. later

damnit they didnt show up the first time. ill try agian. i want either the black or silver ones. im not sure about gold. but they might not be too bad. i dont know. wut do you guys think?

Cress,

First things first, the Supra (Celica) rims are quite expensive for $150 (I'm assuming in USD). My friend got a very clean set without any dings or dents for $100 Canadian, which is about maybe $65 USD.

But yes, they are hard to find. I bet they are even more difficult to find in the States.. Probably a higher demand for them?

Those 15 inch rims look amazing! I like the deep lip on them, it will look amazing on your Cressida, for sure! I prefer those over the 14 inch Supra (Celica) rims.

How much can you get those aftermarket rims for? Wow, they look gooooooooooood... :wink:

Thanks,
Kevin

Those rims are $300 for 14&quot; and $350 for 15&quot; my brother knows some people in japan so i might get a nice used set for cheaper. maybe ill look into new ones. it depends on how much i can get them for. later

I see,

That's a pretty decent price for new rims, I think. They will look very nice on your car nonetheless.

Try searching for rims on E-Bay maybe? Wheel Choice (http://www.wheelchoice.com/) usually have a few set of nice used Japanese rims that go for pretty cheap. Better yet, you live in the States, so you don't have to pay as much as we do in Canada, for shipping.

I'll probably get something from Wheel Choice in the future. They've sold some nice rims in the past.

Good luck,
Kevin
